New info about Bill Spitzer

I received new info about Bill this morning.

Gooser,

I talked to Bill yesterday morning. He has been moved from the hospital in Rapid City, SD to a special rehab hospital. The closest one that had a room, and the kind of services he needs, was in Billings, Montana. Got the address from his daughter this morning.

I’m sure he’d enjoy phone calls and cards as he rehabs. It sounds like he will be there for a while, but from both he and his daughter, I got an earliest hoped-for date of being able to get home of Thanksgiving. That would be a mighty fine Thanksgiving for him and family if that comes to pass.

Great to hear Bill is coming along well. I always remember the time we had at Polock's shin dig up in New York. He and the swishy one were the judges.....

He sounds great. His voice is strong. He is as spunky and spirited as ever.

This has really made my day.

Thank you Gooser for letting us know.

Gooser, Thanks for posting this info - many of us on this forum feel a bond for UB because of who he is & what he stands for. I will be dropping him a line & visiting him in person when I return to SD for my 65th class reunion.

Mike Thank you for posting Bill's info. I was able to get ahold of him and had a good time remembering all the good stuff. I mentioned that RTF is asking about him and told me to tell everyone "Thanks ". Hey Mike he even said what I knew already ..you are a good guy...LOL

He sounds really good. He talked a LOT about how impressed he is with his doctor/
He said she is from Transylvania!

They are going to run tests today to see about nerve damage along the sciatic nerve in his leg..

His spirits were really quite good. Immediately started to mess with Gooser over the phone about wearin white while trainin dogs!
A Lot of fun to talk about old times, HRC hunt tests, How when he Judged ,His mission was to see how fast he could fold my sheet!!!
He said to thank everyone for the well wishes and cards and phone calls.

Look out!!! Hes gettin better!!!
